Problem/activity:
Problem 1
Solve using the standard algorithm. If you get stuck, use an area model and/or the partial products algorithm to help. Then assess the reasonableness of your answer.
a.
$$5,803\times46$$
b.
$$63\times2,116$$
Problem 2
Dunkin' introduced a croissant doughnut in 2014. In the first three months of its debut, they sold 7,870 dozen of them per day. How many croissant doughnuts were sold in the first three months?


Standard options: 
A. Add, subtract, multiply, and divide decimals to hundredths, using concrete models or drawings and strategies based on place value, properties of operations, and/or the relationship between addition and subtraction; relate the strategy to a written method and explain the reasoning used.
B. Find whole-number quotients of whole numbers with up to four-digit dividends and two-digit divisors, using strategies based on place value, the properties of operations, and/or the relationship between multiplication and division. Illustrate and explain the calculation by using equations, rectangular arrays, and/or area models.
C. Fluently multiply multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.


Thought: This set of problems involves multi-digit whole numbers because the numbers in each problem are four and two digit integers, and the mathematical calculations involved in both problems focus on multiplication. The first problem explicitly asks the student to solve its subproblems using the standard algorithm.
Answer: C

Now, assign the following problem or activity to one or more relevant standards it aligns with.

options: Relate volume to the operations of multiplication and addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.

Measure volumes by counting unit cubes, using cubic cm, cubic in, cubic ft, and improvised units.

Recognize volume as an attribute of solid figures and understand concepts of volume measurement.
problem_activity: Narrative
The purpose of this activity is for students to find the volume of figures composed of two non-overlapping right rectangular prisms by adding the volumes of the non-overlapping parts. There are different ways to decompose the figures. Monitor for students who break the figures apart differently and find the same total volume. To reinforce earlier work with cubic units of measure, ask students for the unit of measure in their response if they state the volume as only a number (MP2). If students finish early, give them isometric grid paper to draw a figure composed of two rectangular prisms for their partner to find the volume.

Launch
Groups of 2
Display the image from the student workbook with the missing side lengths.
“How can we find the missing side lengths?”
1 minute: quiet think time
2 minutes: partner discussion
Share and record responses on the image of the figure.  (We can subtract 5 from 7 in both cases.)
Activity
“Now, each partner will find the volume of one of the figures and then switch papers. Your job is to then find the volume using a different decomposition strategy than your partner.”
If there is time, the groups of 2 can make groups of 4 and share responses and strategies.
10 minutes: independent work time with partner discussion
Give students access to isometric dot paper to draw the figures if they finish early.

If students do not find the correct volume of the figure, ask, “Where do you see rectangular prisms in this figure?”
Activity Synthesis
Display: Figure 2
“How did you break up this shape to find the volume?” (I cut off the overhanging piece vertically to make two rectangular prisms. I cut off the bottom piece that the shape is resting on, horizontally.)
“How did you find the side lengths of the rectangular prisms?” (Some of the lengths are provided, and I found the others by subtracting.)
“Did you get the same volume when you broke up the figure differently? Why?” (Yes. The calculations were different but they both tell me how many cubic inches it takes to fill the shape.)
